WipEout PS3 Content Packs Coming to Vita

Two WipEout HD content packs that were previously exclusive to the PS3 will soon be available on Vita.

Sony has announced that content from WipEout HD and WipEout HD Fury will be available as DLC for Vita's WipEout 2048 from tomorrow in Europe, and today in the States.

Thanks to the company's Cross-Buy feature, if players have already purchased the packs on their PS3 then they'll be able to download Vita versions at no extra charge. The Cross-Buy feature also works the other way, meaning purchasing a title on the Vita makes you eligible to download its PS3 counterpart for free. Vita games which make use of this already include Hustle Kings, Top Darts and Motorstorm RC.

Content from the latest console incarnation in the WipEout series, WipEout HD, can be downloaded on the PS Vita through the WipEout 2048 - WipEout HD Game Pack. It contains 12 new tracks, including eight reverse tracks, and 12 new ships to bolster what's already on offer in the retail version of WipEout 2048. If that's not enough for you, the WipEout HD Fury Game Pack will provide access to a further 12 tracks and 24 more ships.

Each pack will cost £6.49 ($7.99) individually or £9.99 ($12.99) if bought together.
